5 Instagram myths

Sveta, the queen of lists, is with you again😂 Well, I love it when things are in points and clear✌
⠀
1. The most popular one is the so-called "shadow ban".
❌People believe you can get a shadow ban and then a certain hashtag will stop being shown. Or a certain group of people will not be able to see them.
✔ Shadow ban does not exist! Instagram has officially acknowledged this.
There are glitches and failures in the system.
There is nothing more to say here.
⠀
2. The most important thing is followers and likes.
❌ If there are lots of likes, comments and followers, I will sell well and earn a lot.
✔ Partly yes, but not as a rule. You can earn very well even without "a hundred thousand" followers.
For example, I need followers, and the more the better. Because I am an expert and must be able both to sell and to attract. I have the full set here😅
A shoe shop does not necessarily need 10k followers; what matters is strong positioning aimed at sales. Real reviews and photos.
⠀
3. Content and organic growth.
❌ You can post super high-quality, cool photos, write amazing texts, and people will flock to me on their own.
✔ It used to be so. Now it is a utopia.
Be three times as great, somebody, somewhere still has to find out about you first.🤷‍♀️
⠀
4. Targeting is very hard.
❌ Ads are expensive, hard to set up, and there is a high chance of wasting the budget🙈
✔ It is not that hard to figure out; the main thing is to understand the principle. Try and test. Many people make mistakes and that is normal, it is what lets you get a better result next time💪
⠀
5. A personal brand = your whole life on display.
❌ I do not want to bet on a personal brand because I do not want everyone to see what I live by.
✔ Do not confuse a personal brand with a personal blog. A shop must have a personal brand too! And you should already have a formed image here. You need to show exactly as much as you want people to see👌
